LibraryThing to BibTEX

I created a web page that generates a BibTEX file from your LibraryThing books.

Let me know if it works for you or if you run into any problems with it.

    This converter is amazing. Bookmarked !

    I found a little bug, the converter (it seems) can’t handle Unicode. Some japanese characters gave me this exception :

    “Exception in ^^XX attempt: ‘ascii’ codec can’t encode character u’\u307e’ in position 0: ordinal not in range(128)”.

  3. asoko, if you email me your LibraryThing.xls file, I’ll take a look at it and see if I can fix the bug.

    I’ve tried to write it so that it handles Unicode characters, but I haven’t had much to test it with yet.

    Thanks!
